As someone who’s been using Samsung phone exclusively over the last 10 years, nothing.

I have been through about 3 Samsung phones now back to back, which has been about the last 8 years and they are great so idk why they are getting so much hate. I had either the 1st or 2nd pixel phone prior to going Samsung and I thought it was awful. I found that I did enjoy some of the extra stuff the UI overlay builds in. For example, at least back then and may not reflect today, pixel didn’t even have a way to display battery % by default. I think you could through turning on developer options but it was not as nice. Does the Samsung UI come with a lot of stuff I don’t use? Sure but I also don’t think it impacts it negatively anyway so who cares.

Also I hate iPhone and think it is the worst UI of them all. I use it daily for my work phone and really have no idea how everyone believes its the best option there is.

Constant Innovation is not the same thing as being a good product

If you want a good product why would you get something from Samsung? Garbage company and garbage products. My s10 died shortly after the warranty expired and their tv’s are riddled with ads, on top of that their warranty service is practically non existent in Canada. Fuck Samsung.

On the other hand, I’ve found Samsung phones in the past 5-8 years to fit my needs in a way that other phones (including pixels and iphones) don’t.

Your experience is not everyone else’s experience. Mind blowing, I’m sure…

Nah. As much as I want better software, iOS is not the one for me and any other brands than Apple and Samsung are either just not available in my country or are just a bunch of Chinese brands.

I’m just waiting for Pixel’s official release in my country.
